Song background:

 

 I Will Help to Gather Israel  is taken from a collection of songs  called The Prophets Songbook which contains 17 songs of  our modern-day prophets and themes from their presidency. This song was written to highlight a teaching of President Russell M. Nelson who said, "Nothing opens the heavens like...regular time committed to temple and family history work. That gathering is the most important thing taking place on the earth today. Nothing else compares in magnitude, nothing else compares in importance, nothing else compares in majesty. Yes, you have been prepared from before this life and born now to participate in the great work of gathering of Israel on both sides of the veil in these latter days."

Lyrics: I will be part of the Lord's battalion,
To gather Israel on both sides:
Here on earth and beyond the veil,
Then the heavens will open wide.
I will help to gather Israel.
This is the greatest challenge.
This is the greatest cause.
This is the greatest work on the earth that ever was.
I will take this challenge.
I will help this cause.
I will serve the Lord in the greatest work that ever was.
I will help to gather Israel.

I'll help unite the Father's family
Who've been scattered to the lands aboard;
He will then fulfill His promises,
We are heirs to the kingdom of God.
I will help to gather Israel.
